You can. A lot of calmag sellers will include a foliar recipe on their products or websites. Based on the tip and edge curl, I'd reduce your light level, as well.

Take a look at the N.P.K of what you have.
N = Nitrogen. 5ml = 1 teaspoon. There are 200 teaspoons in 1 liter. 200/1 ratio
Multiply the first N.P.K number buy 10,000 then divide the answer buy 200 to get a Nitrogen ppm per liter.
You can then divide the answer above buy 3.78 to get about 800/1.
5ml per gallon try and keep your N bellow 50 for Folier.

Check carefully that what you are feeding has micro nutrients!
Plant still looks very light stressed. You need to at least double the distance between the plant and the light.
You should be able to calculate a safe folier feed solution and a a watering N ppm to suit your need.
Make sure when you feed and water you PH the water for watering day. And PH the solution as well.

You can add cal-mag to your water or feeding solutions. No problem. Just check the PH after mixing
Always 6.5 or very close.

I suggest adding Mg and reducing the light intensity. Because Mg is the central atom in the chlorophyl molecule, there is a relationship between available Mg and the amount of light a plant can use.

Shes already pretty far away
Just measured 80cm from my 232 watt led

Hust flushed her though

And when she drys out again im going to give her 200 ec worth og calmag
90 worth of nitrogen
90 worth potassium
30 worth of phosporus
And some root Root stimulator
Should add up to about 450-500 ec
Pr liter
Sounds about right to you?

The only criteria that matters is how the plants are doing. When we see taco-ing, canoe-ing, twisting, edge curl, or any color other than green prior to the fade, it's time to turn the lights down, or move them farther away.
